Chateauneuf du Pape 2010Chimere
owc
Magnum (1)

"Packaged in a distinctive Italian glass bottle, this
inky/purple-colored 2010 exhibits notes of blueberries, charcoal,
roasted herbs and scorched earth. The complex aromas are followed
by a full-bodied, super intense, young, unevolved wine that was
bottled April 26, 2012, but still resembles a barrel sample. As the
wine sits in the glass, aromas of blueberries, licorice and
graphite emerge. While the tannins are sweet, they are abundant.
This remarkable effort came from one 300-liter foudre. Forget it
for 4-5 years and drink it over the following 3 decades." (98+ pts.
Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #203, Oct. 2012)
